Objective:To investigate the iodine nutrition status of children aged 8 to 10 years old in Nanchang City.Methods:From March 2020 to September 2022, 9 counties (districts, administration bureau) in Nanchang City were selected as monitoring points. Each monitoring point was divided into 5 sampling areas according to the east, west, south, north, and middle directions. One township was selected from each area, and 40 non-boarding children aged 8 to 10 years old (age balanced, half male and half female) from one primary school were selected as survey subjects. Edible salt samples from children's homes, as well as a random urine sample were collected to detect salt iodine and urinary iodine level. The thyroid volume of children was also measured.Results:From 2020 to 2022, a total of 5 400 edible salt samples from children's homes were tested, with a median salt iodine level of 24.13 mg/kg. Among them, there were 5 172 qualified iodized salt samples, 168 unqualified iodized salt samples, and 60 non-iodized salt samples. The coverage rate of iodized salt was 98.89% (5 340/5 400), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 96.85% (5 172/5 340), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 95.78% (5 172/5 400). A total of 5 400 children's urine samples were tested, with a median urinary iodine level of 210.90 μg/L. A total of 2 662 children were examined for thyroid, of which 4 had thyroid enlargement, with an enlargement rate of 0.15% (4/2 662).Conclusion:The overall iodine nutrition of children aged 8 to 10 years old in Nanchang City is at a super appropriate level, and the thyroid enlargement rate meets the national standard (< 5%).

OBJECTIVES: White matter hyperintensity (WMH) is an important factor leading to cognitive impairment, and the mechanism has not been clarified. In recent years, studies have found that circular RNA (circRNA) has differential expression in cerebrovascular diseases. This study aims to analyze the expression profile of circRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) of patients with WMH with cognitive impairment, to screen the differentially expressed circRNA, and to explore the possible role of circRNA in WMH with cognitive impairment. METHODS: CircRNA microarray was used to detect the circRNA expression profile of PBMC in patients with WMH with cognitive impairment, and in patients with WMH without cognitive impairment as well as in normal controls (3 cases each, male to female ratio of 2꞉1). The differentially expressed circRNA in patients with WMH with cognitive impairment was screened. The screening criteria for differentially expressed circRNA was fold change (FC) ≥2.0 (|log RESULTS: Compared with the control group, there were 5 significantly up-regulated circRNA and 3 down-regulated circRNA in the WMH with cognitive impairment group; 8 circRNA were significantly up-regulated and 2 were down-regulated in the WMH without cognitive impairment group. When compared with the WMH with cognitive impairment group, no co-differentially expressed circRNA was found in WMH without cognitive impairment group and control group. Compared with the control group, the expression of hsa_circ_0092222 was up-regulated and the expressions of hsa_circ_0000662 and hsa_circ_0083773 were down-regulated in the WMH with cognitive impairment group and the WMH without cognitive impairment group, and there was no significant difference between the 2 groups (all CONCLUSIONS The circRNA expression profile of patients with WMH is changed significantly. The differentially expressed circRNA may be the cause of WMH; Hsa_circ_0092222, hsa_circ_0000662, and hsa_circ_0083773 may regulate the expression of target genes by targeting adsorption of the target miRNA, leading to brain white matter damage through Janus kinase 2 (JAK2)/signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT3) signal pathway and Wnt signal pathway.There is no significant difference in circRNA expression profile between WMH with or without cognitive impairment. Cognitive impairment in patients with WMH may have other reasons.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of patients with primary gastric adenosquamous cell carcinoma.

METHODSA total of 5 562 patients with gastric neoplasm were admitted in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from January 2001 to January 2011. Among them 42 patients were diagnosed as primary gastric adenosquamous cell carcinoma, accounting for 0.76% of all the patients. The clinicopathological and follow-up data of these 42 patients with primary gastric adenosquamous cell carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed, and Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the prognostic factors of gastric adenocarcinoma squamous cell carcinoma.

RESULTSAmong above 42 patients, 32 were male and 10 were female, with a male-to-female ratio of 3.2/1.0 and the average age was 63 years (range: 46 to 77 years). Five patients (11.9%) were confirmed as adenosquamous cell carcinoma by preoperative pathological examination, while other 37 patients were diagnosed as adenocarcinoma preoperatively. According to the 7th edition AJCC TNM classification system for gastric adenocarcinoma, 5 patients (11.9%) were in stage II(, 30 patients (71.4%) in stage III( and 7 patients (16.7%) in stage IIII(. The maximum tumor diameter was > 5 cm in 18 patients (42.9%). Borrmann type III(-IIII( was found in 29 patients (69.0%), and poorly differentiated (or undifferentiated) tumor was found in 32 patients (76.2%). Radical operations were performed in 31 patients (73.8%), the reasons of non radical operations included infiltration of pancreas in 3 patients, infiltration of radices mesocili transvers in 1 patient and classification of stage IIII( in 7 patients. Lymph node dissection was performed in 37 patients, 83.8% of them (31/37) was found with lymphatic metastases. Twenty-five patients received adjuvant chemotherapy except for 7 patients in stage IIII( and 10 patients who refused adjuvant chemotherapy. All the patients had an average survival time of 36.4 months and median survival time of 28.0 months, and the overall 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 82.2%, 42.3% and 18.2% respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that tumor size (χ=4.039, P=0.044), Borrmann type (χ=18.728, P=0.000), tumor differentiation (χ=19.612, P=0.000), radical gastectomy (χ=41.452, P=0.000), lymph node metastasis (χ=9.689, P=0.002) and clinical stage (χ=26.277, P=0.000) were associated with postoperative survival. Multivariate analysis revealed that tumor differentiation (HR=10.560, 95%CI:2.263-49.281, P=0.003), radical gastrectomy (HR=4.309, 95%CI:1.311-14.168, P=0.016) and clinical stage (HR=2.392, 95%CI:1.022-5.600, P=0.044) were independent prognosis factors.

CONCLUSIONSPrimary gastric adenosquamous cell carcinoma is rare with poor prognosis. Radical gastrectomy is recommended. Tumor differentiation, radical gastrectomy and clinical stage are important indicators to evaluate prognosis of primary gastric adenosquamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To explore the effects of day care ward nursing model in patients with lumpectomy of breast. Methods A total of 106 patients with lumpectomy in Breast Surgery or Day-care Unit at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were selected by random sampling from January to February 2016. The group of day surgery (day care ward nursing model) and the group of hospitalization surgery (routine inpatient nursing model) included 53 patients respectively. This study compared the hospital stay, medical expense, satisfaction of patients and their family members between two groups. Results The hospital stay and medical expense of the group of day surgery was less than those of the group of hospitalization surgery with significant differences (t=22.814, 14.374; P<0.01). The satisfaction of patients and their family members in the group of day surgery was better than that in the group of hospitalization surgery with a significant difference (χ2=13.532, P<0.01). Patients of both groups recovered well after surgery without safety problem in medicine. Conclusions The day care ward nursing model in patients with lumpectomy is a safe and effective medical model. It can shorten the hospital stay, and improve the utilization ratio of beds, and lower the medical expense. Besides, it is conducive to improving the satisfaction of patients and their family members and solving the problem of difficulties in seeking medical advice.
